Great place to work if you are content staying put
Engineer (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – February 9, 2019
Ford is a secure to company to work for, however if you have aspiration for advancement it is exceedingly difficult to get noticed. If you have that go get em attitude, this company only rewards the few. Very biblical in the sense that many are called, few are chosen. There is less emphasis on hard skills and more on soft skills (after work activities, cronyism). You will find this at other companies, but it is widespread at this one. When you are out of the inner circle, you not only know it, you feel it. Now if you have no aspiration, and you just want a job with no autonomy (lots of rules and decisions being made at high levels) this is your place to work. Great for someone coming out of school that wants to learn. Great American company, but very adverse to risk (115 Years does not come easy)
